  • Today I have two sneakers for you in the spotlight! One of them is my latest New Balance pickup in shape of the 993 GL to complete the 99X series and the other one the Adidas ZX 8000 Vapor Pink. However the latter was just half a pickup because quality was literarily spot on. Check out the video if you want to find out the full story!

    993 is one of my favourite New Balance pairs. I have the Indigo colour, undecided if I should pick up the black or grey pair next. Great review, I prefer the 993 over the 992 too.

    • @HighlyAkicktive
      @HighlyAkicktive  Před 3 lety +3

      The indigo pair is a super nice CW as well! I was observing that one as well. Black is nice for the winter because it's almost indestructible but grey is just such a damn classic and versatile colorway

    Congrats on the 993GL! I too saw them on joe's for super cheap and should have picked them up but oh well. 993s look very clean, I am looking into the green color way. I am patiently waiting for some 992GG that dropped a few days ago. Will be my first ever 992 so i am pretty excited! Bummer on those adidas...was looking forward to the review when I first saw the box open up.. I guess either quality control is down at adidas or those were returned and resold.. Hope all is well!

    • @HighlyAkicktive
      @HighlyAkicktive  Před 3 lety +2

      Thanks man! Good choice on the 992GG, can never go wrong with Navy either, in fact I'd love to have that CW as well. It's just as timeless as grey but doesn't get as dirty that quickly haha. I think adidas quality has gone down a little on the zx line. Have noticed some people with flaws on their pairs. still not as bad as on Nike though 😉

    that does suck. damn i still wanted you to talk about them even though they had all that glue. that's how im feeling they didn't get a chance to be reviewed by one of the best in my opinion. they look good too. i just recently saw the undefeated and bape zx8000 pair i like the simple black and white look of them. the lego one is fire too thinking i might go back to get them.

    • @HighlyAkicktive
      @HighlyAkicktive  Před 3 lety +1

      🥰 that compliment 🥰 yeah the zx did look nice after all. The bape/undefeated even comes in two colorways I believe, black and Kelly green. The Lego is pretty dope too, the whole concept was a1! There's a similar colorway to that as well which is really good too. Very similar for anyone who missed the Lego.
